Default today's hunt

Didn't have a lot of time, but did find 2 quarters, 1 dime, 1 nickel, 7 pennies, and a musket ball. I also found another interesting item, not quite sure what it is. It was a round clip, with a silver turtle attached to it. No insignia or anything. Doesn't look like it could of been an earring, or a ring, thought it first it may be a band from a turtle that died, but doesn't have any #'s on it, so I ruled that out as well. My wife likes the turtle, so she'll find a way to wear it I'm sure.
